A peek at DeAnna Pappas's finances is being shared. In the middle of her continuing divorce fight with Stephen Stagliano, the Bachelorette alumna disclosed how much money she makes as a flight attendant, seventeen years after she first gained notoriety as a finalist during Brad Womack's season of The Bachelor.

According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, the 43-year-old has been employed in Los Angeles since 2011 for a company called Sun Air Jets. She claimed that her average monthly income is $13,865, while her monthly expenses, which include bills, rent, groceries, health care, and more, total about $13,892.

In addition to receiving $1,500 in spousal support from her ex-husband, DeAnna also reported having $36,911 in the bank and an additional $20,000 in assets as part of her divorce from Stephen, with whom she shares children Addison, 11, and Austin, 9. Stephen, who separated from DeAnna in 2023 after 11 years of marriage, filed his own income and expense declaration in April, claiming to be unemployed after serving as the CEO of a gaming company.

“As of April 2025, I have no income,” According to Us Weekly, he told the court. “I am actively looking for a job, and DeAnna’s constantly changing work schedule and her drinking has made it incredibly difficult to do so.”

In fact, Stephen's paperwork was made just two months after DeAnna was taken into custody after they allegedly got into a fight. A few hours later, she was freed from police custody after posting a $20,000 bond.

According to court documents that at the time was able to get, Stephen's mother Lynn Stagliano submitted a declaration a week after her arrest, claiming that she "very obviously smelt alcohol on DeAnna's breath" when she picked up Austin from her former daughter-in-law's house for school.

In response, however, DeAnna filed a domestic violence restraining order against her ex-husband that same day, describing what allegedly transpired the night of her arrest and claiming several instances of verbal and physical abuse, frequently in front of their two children.

When their daughter, who she said has special needs, asked to sleep at her ex's house, she claimed in the March 7 filing that she called him and that when he arrived, he "told me that I needed to walk closer to him because he wanted to smell my breath to make sure that I was not drunk."

"I had not consumed any alcohol," she revealed. DeAnna has openly corrected the record on her arrest for domestic violence on social media a month later.

"We wish to address recent public speculation and clarify the current legal status of matters stemming from an incident involving her former spouse," read an April post that appeared on DeAnna's Instagram Stories, stating that "no criminal charges were filed."

"In the best interest of the minor children," the message went on, "Ms. Pappas voluntarily withdrew a temporary restraining order in order to reach a cooperative agreement, allowing the children to be shielded from prolonged conflict and public exposure."

This situation has been unfolding dramatically in the public eye, and it seems like both parties are pushing to settle their disputes.
